Fun with Pose

 

This is actually a TMD weekend pose from Secret Poses called Brotherhood. Well, as you can see, you don't need to be a guy to use this pose, but I had to edit and move Moon's pose.... which is why I didn't add their feet in the picture. She was on air!

Chez Moi had a flash sale this weekend, but I bought this set during last year's sale. I didn't even know that there was a pose for man playing guitar! I never checked.

Then Moon and Carter went to Luanes Magical World to see the Unicorn. That place is so amazing, it's difficult to choose where to pose. If you join the group, you can rez and that was what I did. 

Finally, I use chatgpt to turn the image into an oil painting and it reminds me of a fantasy illustration from a book.

Moon is wearing *COCO*_Gift_OpenBackRuchedTop_Pink and HW60_*COCO*_FlareJeans_Floral.

With Carter, they are wearing David Heather Dionne and Cher Costumes from a few years ago.

Girl talk

The loggia of  the villa seemed like a good place to have a girl talk. Even the cats seemed to think so:)
Miel has released this Peasant Dress for FLF and of course I had to grab it before the price goes up. I tried the demo at the marketplace and then tped to the Mainstore to get it although it's also on the marketplace for 50L at the moment.
It comes with a hud with 12 different colours.

Moon is wearing Belleza Jade skin from past FLF with Purple Poses from the Black Fair.

A gift for You

I had the most confusing time while trying to list this freebie cabin on the marketplace because it kept on getting unlisted and then I realised that there was a banned word in it. After a few trials and errors, I realised that I cannot add the word FREE on the item. I guess people have misused and misled that word till it is now banned. So I had to delete the whole thing and renamed it again.
My beachcomber's cabin series have been quite a success story. I think it came out at the right time because of summer. I think I also didn't sell it for your arms and legs. I'm very grateful and I wanted to give back this little modified version which I am using so that my little beach wouldn't look so forlornly barren.
It's free and it's for anyone who happens to see my blog:)
Word of caution. It is 100% made in SL. No mesh.

sweet polka dots

Polkadots are irresistable. Somehow, when it was time to choose from so many other floral textures, I ended up with this polka dot dress from -tb-

hair: ISON - Heidi (hair fair 2013)
dress: -tb- Frilly Dress  - Polka Dot (July Collab)
jewelry: (Yummy) Midsummer Blossom Earrings - Egg Shell (July Collab)
hat: old stuff from Coco
shoes: Maitreya Gold Shiki (I rarely take them off!)

And, I also completed a small courtyard pool house. I miss building small 1 bedroom houses.

Hair Fair 2013 Port Sim

I;m not sure if I already have a similar short hair style as this hair from Chichikie called Pepper. But even if I do, I probably have it in blonde. It's only now that I'm starting to collect dark coloured hair.
The sundress is from Finesmith and cost 89L for group members.

My modern house is almost finished except for the roof. So while I procrastinate on completing the roof, I decorated the poolside and  brought out Carter and pretend they're having barbeque.

The Poolside Guestroom.

Pretending to unpack:)

Sale at Maitreya

I don't think there's anyone who doesn't know that there's a sale going on at Maitreya. Moon is wearing one of the many outfits I've bought for her.
I've busted my budget again and it's only the first week of the month.
Sale ends July 17.

This home by the Sea

One of the things I love to do in SL is house decorating. I don't have the time to do it in a leisurely way anymore because I am always in a hurry to pack up the house once it's completed. Fortunately, I prefer minimal clutter.

The thing about contemporary classical furnitures, once you have them, you don't need to buy anymore furnitures because they're timeless.

warm summer breezes in something sheer and old

I just completed my houses and this bedroom looks so inviting I thought I might as well take a picture of Moon in something sheer for the 50 shades of sexy challenge which I have neglected doing for a very long time.
Moon is wearing an old outfit from SF Design called Carribean Crotchet and Truth hair Kerri.

I am in Pergola mood lately and that's why all my houses seems to have them. And having a water parcel seems to inspire me to build all kinds of houses that would suit a water parcel even if it seemed unlikely, think carribean countries during colonial times.

hair sale and missed opportunity

There is a hair sale going on at Magika at the moment until July 10th. I am shocked I only bought 2 pairs of hair. The hair Moon is wearing is called After. She is also wearing Maitreya's sarong Lust and Shiki wedges which she never seemed to take off. I really do want to buy her new shoes, but everytime I get excited seeing new shoes, it has to be paired with slink feet which I don't have and who knows when I'm going to get them for Moon.

I'm working on a new house and only the kitchen is furnished at the moment. I am inspired to do another classical contemporary home which to me means, it's an old design renovated to look new. This home is going to be big.

Missed opportunity. Today is my late father's birthday. He would have been 67 today but he died 20 years ago. I was never close to him but I still miss him because I wished I was. And talking about death, my brother died when he was 47. It makes me wonder if I would die somewhere in between.

And there ends this sudden morbidness.

Home

Moon wearing MIEL Nautica Dress fatpack for FLF. I didn't go to the shop but bought it at the marketplace. At the moment it's still 50L.
I am loving my underwater home....which doesn't have any house or furnitures. Just landscaping and  fishes and dolphins.

The colours just blow me away. My daughters, who are scuba beginners laughed when I showed them Moon's place. Although most of the time I am up on the sky platform building.

Under the sea

Have you been to the Under the Sea Expo yet?
Lots of free hunt items. I really love that I don't need to tp from sim to sim to find them coz after a few times tping, I would crash without fail and being in the sim same defeats that. And I love it! I remember how it used to be that hunts were always on the same sim. I would rather have lag than crash anyday.
Isn't this hunt item from kittycats of a swimming cat adorable? Moon is also wearing a free Mermaid outfit from Evie's closet and whimsical seahorse rings on her fingers from House of Rain.
With this expo I have also made up my mind to make an underwater landscape and I've already set free a few dolphins on my water parcel. I let them roam too far so it is not so easy to take pics of all 3 of them together. Maybe next time.

This Polka Dot Dress

Although it's already Friday, this wednesday Grenade free offer dress from DRBC is still available. Something about polka dots is irresistable.
I'm working on my next house project, another quarter house inspiration. It's almost done. That's Moon posing on the completed balcony.

Feeling blue

This is the front part of the house I am building. This house would probably be on the prim heavy side because I added more details than I normally do because colonial style homes tend to have more architectural details.
I've been feeling down these past few days. I feel abandoned. Which is why this house looks like it's a little run down.

I still have a lot to do. Of course, if my mood changed, I might put pretty little flowers on the wall instead of that washed out paint job.

The feeling of loneliness, and the fear of not having anyone to care or love you, the feeling of rejection, is actually the feeling of being abandoned. The feeling of abandonment becomes inevitable when we lose those, who have been very close to us.

I think loosing the men in my life has affected me more than I realised.

work clothes

I've been building on my platform. I know, what else is new....

hair: [e] I bought a lot of hair during the sale and this style is something I do in rl
jewelry: past group gift from [Leezu!]
top: recent c88 from The Sea Hole
capri: coldlogic
shoes: GF

I'm really excited about this new house I am building. It's green! And it was inspired from a lake house in New Hampshire I saw on the internet.

This is going to be Moon's new house!

bargains from Liv-Glam

I had a good time shopping at Liv-Glam today because I didn't spent too much lindens. The clothes were cheery prints except for the little black dress group gift. They were last week's bargains and I'm happy I got them before they changed for this week.
On my building front, I completed another house! I'm on a roll. This house was inspired by a close friend of mine who thought I shouldn't make a too square house and that I should put the house on stilts.

I was still in my rustic mood.

something old, something new

I still love my non mesh dresses. Somehow the flexible skirt and lace trimmings feels so ladylike.
Moon is in my latest build. It's shades of rustic white and she sure do look flushed with the walls. The house is the something new.

Here's the interior. Right now it's finished and at 41 land impact and 15x20. It's a small house. I just haven't packed it yet.

outdoor furnishing

This furniture set from Lame reminded me of another furniture set I had a few years back, except now the prims are low. I bought the set from this month's Fameshed. I only have 692 prims on my parcel so I have to be very resourceful all the time.
I still haven't figured out why my dog isn't wandering eventhough I had set him to wander but I still find him fascinating. It's so adorable how his AI makes him do only the animations I had praised him. The best part is I don't have to fork out lindens to feed him. Doesn't make sense to me that I have to feed virtual pets when I don't have to feed my avatar.

I made another free house

I've been wanting to do a log cabin for a while now. This little cutie-pie is free and just something I did for fun. This cabin is absolutely for only 1 person.

If you can say no

The hardest thing is to say no to people's requests but if you can, what does it make you? I'm finding it easier and easier to say no nowadays. I wonder if that is one of the signs of old age. Just like it's getting more and more difficult for me to keep quiet around irritating people. I read somewhere that women becomes more and more strict when they get older while men becomes more and more mellow. It has something to do with our hormones.

I completed my house. It's similar to my other modern houses but this one was in my head when I woke up last Sunday and instead of having breakfast, I am one of those people who can eat first thing when they wake up(I hear we are an endengered specie haha) anyway, instead of breakfast, I started building and 3 days later, it's in the Marketplace and at my little mainstore.

This little house has a sun roof in the kitchen! I love big huge windows and most of my houses have these big huge windows. And french doors! Well double doors actually but french doors sounds fancier.

As usual, I use my old furnitures to decorate the house and these furnitures are so versatile, I hate parting with them.

New Home

I finished building another house. My new home at the moment. It reminds me of when we used to holiday up in the hills with grandfather and the rest of his brood. Although that bungalow had more than just 2 bedrooms.
I won't be putting this house up on the marketplace. I thought I'd wait till I know mesh more. Right now this house is 66land impact, but I think I can reduce the roof prims, afterall, there are no attics.
